howell fuel return line

[callerys]

Buying the Howell TBI for the CJ. Everything I have read says to up the fuel return line to 3/8 from factory size. Any recommendations on the best place to buy this stuff? Was going to use just rubber but have been advised to use aluminum since it's on the bottom.

should be able to buy a roll at any auto store.

Well I just ordered it. Now I gotta find the time to install it.

I just purchased the Howell as well. Did you end up using the stock return line or did you up the diameter?

I run a Howell TBI on my 401 and just used the stock fuel lines. I have not had any problems with supply or return flows.

I'm planning on using the original lines and if its running rich afterwards, that will be the first thing I investigate. Good to hear you were able to use the stock lines!

Ran super rich with the stock 1/4 line. I ran a new 3/8 hard line and runs way better. Depending on your altitude it may be fine with the stock return. I was running 6 psi before the change on the return side.

Thanks for the heads up!! I'll most likely run hard lines as well.
